Re: Installing a pad
Lee, I did the grinding :D . She loves to shoot but does not like to dive into it that much. I must have done my job well because we went out back and I ran 25 clays through my thrower. She shot 20 out of 25 from the low gun position. Prior to that she couldn't hit the side of a barn with that gun. ...

Installing a pad
I posted this over on another board and thought you guys might like it. This evening I had to get my wife's gun finished for her duck hunting trip this weekend. I have been fitting the gun to her over the last week and had the pad left to install. Due to her gun fit I had to add a negative pitch spa...

Lee, If you do not want to reload, just order the RST, or Polywads by mail. Thats what I do out here in ND. All of them are very goood shells, and as far as cost, there is little to no differnce if you are buying good shells anyways. I shoot a French SxS that uses 2 1/2. I shoot the Polywad brand du...

Yours must be the fancier trap grade than mine. There were a couple grades of the trap gun. Having ivory beads and a rib, suggest it must have been one of the upper grades. The rib would have cost the buyer $9.20 extra. The 32 inch barrels also had to be ordered for the model 10. I am still trying t...

Model 10s were discontinued in 1929. Jostam HY Gun pads last Patent date was 1927 with the first being 1914. There is one currently on the gun. It might not be period, but I simply want to replace it with what was on there. The old one is cracked and hardened. I don't think it came with a pad in the...

Congrats. I have a wirehair as well. Mine will be 4 years old this summer. She is a great dog. They like to work and run a lot as you will probably find out :D . They are very intelligent and a lot of fun. Here is Daisy. Post a pic if you get a chance. http://i553.photobucket.com/albums/jj377/wburns...

I don't shoot at that level, just local trap and skeet shoots. I started out swapping chokes as well. I also found if I use a good modified choke I hit better. I think it opens up well enough for close range work and allows you to reach a little further out if you don't get on the bird right away. W...

I have both an original Noshoc that is in perfect condition and the new one from Galazan. There ia very little difference between the two when it comes to their squishiness. Both pads tend to be on the hard side. I think they are nice looking and they are enough to dampen the recoil for me. However,...
